Winnipeg Jets fans are going to get a few more options to fly into Las Vegas next week during the best-of-seven Western Conference final of the Stanley Cup playoffs against the Golden Knights.
Canadian carrier WestJet is adding two special nonstop, round-trip flights between Winnipeg James Armstrong Richardson Airport and McCarran International Airport on May 17 and 20 in hopes that Jets fans will flood T-Mobile Arena.
Of course, there’s no one stopping Golden Knights fans from hopping aboard a plane to return the favor in Winnipeg.
“We look forward to flying the spirit of Canadian hockey to Las Vegas and welcoming fans on board our jets for a convenient nonstop flight,” John Weatherill, a WestJet vice-president, said in a news release.
